Jack's 2nd Birthday

Jack turned two on Wednesday. I can't believe he is two already. We all know he has a soft spot in my heart, I LOVE his little personality lately, I can't get enough of it. The good and the bad. So I let him pick his birthday theme this year. It was pretty much either going to be Buzz Lightyear or Lightening McQueen. Lightening McQueen won out, but only because of his hat, which he shop lifted. For a more details about that, click here.

One happy little guy with the cake. This is nothing special, a quick job but we just didn't have enough people to do anything much bigger. We only ate half of this as it was.

As seems to be tradition, our kids get two parties every year. One at Grandma Hammond's with the extended family, and then one at our house on their actual birthday. The cake and picture below were at grandmas where Jack was hooked up with an awesome Little People car track/garage (the classic with the elevator, I'm a sucker for Little People, and yet somehow this is our first Little People set), a Toy Story 3 car track which is great for racing hot wheels, and some stinking cute tee shirts that Jack has been wearing the last several days because he is so cute in them.

At our house, Jack got his gifts from mom and dad. We hooked him up with a couple power tool sets, which have been a big hit, an adorable crayon set my friend made for me, the Lightening McQueen hat of course, and Lucy got him a Toy Story bouncer ball to bounce around on (which his legs are too short for, but Lucy is sure getting a lot of use out of it).



Tell me that face doesn't say this little guys was one excited bug? Can you see why I have a soft spot for him?

And of course playing with the spoils. I love how well these two are playing lately. It sure makes my life easier, and it just makes me smile and laugh as I listen to their conversations. Love these kids, and love by little man.
